Offered Status Deadline - Transparent date/time ~Salesforce
Add specific date/time in offer email for the five-day cut-off. It currently says "5 days" but participants often want a specific time as to when they will be moved off.
This will help us better justify when a person is moved from the offered status and create more transparency in the process.
Current Email:
Congratulations! You were on the waitlist for ACTIVITY to take place on DATE, and a spot has just opened up! You have five days from now to accept this offer.

When viewing roster (from yellow bar) include date of activity somewhere near the top GH2326
Real helpful when I have multiple rosters for course-related activity. Example: Kayak Roll Course, with 3 associated pool sessions. I can easily get confused as to which one I am working on at the time. Right now, all three look identical. If dated would show up while in the roster editing screen, then I would instantly be able to verify which one is open.

Replace Roster CSV (download), Copy, Print Feature GH1578
The "TableTools" plug-in that we're using is now retired and it used Flash which is not available on all devices. We'll replace it with a newer "Buttons" plug-in that uses HTML5.
2 votesWe upgraded to the new download plug-in and still have the same three functions: copy, csv and print.

Improve search functionality in the Add Person to Roster field
Improve the search capabilities of the lookup field when you are using the "Add Person to Roster" field. Let’s say I’m looking at an activity and I want to add a person to the roster. I click the Roster option near the top of the window then click the button to add a person. A data entry form then appears. When I click in the name window the options for what I can type are extremely limited. If I type the name of a person the way they themselves have told me it is spelled, very often there is no…

Roster Management - Canceling after registration closes GH1782
Currently if registration for an activity is closed and the leader cancels someone from the roster, the next person from the waitlist is automatically added to the roster. To avoid this the total capacity of the trip has to be reduced before canceling someone. This is annoying as a leader and confusing for the participants if done wrong. Once registration is closed, the roster should be fixed unless manually edited.
0 votesRoster management is now manual after registration has closed. We will be sending out a notification in leader lines but please pass along to your fellow leaders.

Roster visibility change on the web site
Some of us are wondering about a recent change on the web site. Activity rosters are no longer visible unless we're registered for that activity. Instead of displaying the roster, the web site now displays this text: " You must be registered for this activity to see the participants".
This obviously enhances privacy for those members who wish it, but it also reduces visibility for those members who use the visibility to hang out together on Mountaineers activities.
As you know, members already have the ability to mark their own profiles as private.
I'm wondering if this privacy setting could…

The rosters should be open to participants to see who is going on a trip--not only to carpool but just to know who is going. Why not?
Currently the only ones who can see the rosters are leaders. Many times as a leader I've heard participants announce "I wish I had known you were going so we could have carpooled." Or many times after a trip people want to get together to socialize. We should protect personal information, but a list of names should not violate anyone's rights, should it?

Make Sort Stick on Roster SD581
Make it so when you switch sort order to alpha or by role (like instructor or admin on a committee) it stays while you are editing.
It would also be good to have this on the calendar function as well to remember what date you were on.

Leaders of a committee should be able to access old course rosters
From Dennis Miller via info@mountaineers.org
It appears that courses expire which means they don't show up under the course template unless you are course admin.
1 voteCommittee admins can see all courses. If a person needs to work with historical courses, they should be a committee admin.

Activity Rosters should divide instructors and participants GH 1124
Please divide rosters for participants and instructors for activities and course related activities in the same way that courses are set up. The sort by feature is less helpful than seeing the clear division.

Roster field showing members Branch
Many trips and outings are joined by members from all Branches. Once a trip is created, and the time comes for communicating final information, a field showing the participant's Branch world be most helpful to assist with arranging carpooling.
1 voteWhen we were chatting with many of our leaders and members during the creation of the current carpool system there was a strong consensus that people have the flexibility to share more detailed information about where they are coming from rather than grouping by Branch. We also were not able to share city with the group because of member privacy.
What we came up with instead is the carpool preference field which has 2 parts. One that allows you to pick Drive, Ride, Drive or Ride, Drive- Full Car, Drive- Have Space.
And then part two where you can say. I’m coming from Ravenna and prefer to meet at 65th St Park and Ride.
Anyone signed up for the same trip can then see this detailed information when they go to the roster and click Email Roster.
Leaders are able to see which city people are coming from and occasionally…

Access to Badge Rosters
Provide access to badge rosters with means for admins to maintain them and correct inaccuracies. I know of no defensible reason to hide this information, especially from committees that need it to do their jobs.

Roster screen: Student status and sorting
On the roster screens for activities and courses display names in last name, firstname MI format (also when searching to add people). Put a set of checkboxes on the main roster screens to let leaders update status without needing to drill down to the edit screen for eaxch student.

Add status column to course roster
The course roster can be improved with a new column to show status of the students and instructosr. Students start out as registered then progress to graduated, cancelled, failed, extended, etc. Instructors may also cancel, no show. Using the role column to carry that fact is not the best because then when the status changes we lose track of the actual role. For example, if the status changes to cancelled, we no longer know if the registration was for a student or an instructor.
By extension, this idea means that "graduated" is a status of the student role, not a…
3 votesWe have no additional feedback that this is a desired change by other course leaders, and it seems that having one column with “Student” and one with “Graduated” would be too confusing.
